Waxing: What You Need To Know

Waxing: What You Need To Know

Waxing can be a girl’s best friend… but it can also be intimidating. We know just how much thought goes into prepping for a first wax appointment because we get all sorts of questions.

What should I do before my appointment?

Is it sanitary?

Does it hurt?

We want to make you feel at ease, which is why we thought that a post with all these answers would be helpful.

What should I do before my appointment?

You want to start out by lightly exfoliating your skin a day or two before waxing and keep it moisturized – but not on the day of the wax!

Is it sanitary? We take great care to provide a safe setting for waxing services. We never double dip our applicators, always wear gloves, and ensure a sanitary environment. If you like, we also offer disposable panties.

Does it hurt? We offer a stripless hard wax removal process using Berodin Wax. This wax adheres to the hair, rather than the skin, and is gentler for even the most sensitive skin.
